If an individual has a more serious alcohol problem and are regularly drinking up to a bottle of spirits a day or has a long term problem in controlling their alcohol use then our initial detox treatment and ongoing support program can help maintain their control.

Successful Alternative
We provide a much more successful alternative to the expense of a residential stay. Some people hope that a short residential stay will help them achieve long term control but it doesn't as many people start drinking within 1 to 2 weeks when they return to normal life and have access to alcohol again.

Those who have already tried a residential stay and failed said 'it did not provide any effective treatment or ongoing support.

Flawed Disease Theory
In addition, many people don't like the fact all residential or 12 step treatment centers preach the theory addiction is a disease, which of course it is not. Those who use this excuse represent 'old thinking' and lack credible treatments to help people stop and so blame their failure on a wider less tangible concept that addiction or dependency is a disease, however the disease theory has been popularised but never 'proven'.

Difficult to Stop?
If you have just started looking for the best ways to stop drinking you may not have heard of us before, we do not use any of the failed treatment methods which have 'proven not to work for most people' such as the NHS, 12 steps, AA, online help, hypnosis, NLP, counseling, or medications which only seek to manage the problem, our advanced stop drinking treatment helps to combat the alcohol problem and is not available elsewhere.

Prescriptions for alcohol problems have soared 46% in the last 10 years but alcohol related deaths have also risen by 40% as the 'evidence based clinical treatment methods' used by the NHS to help people stop drinking do not work, in fact, a Health select committee of MP's has branded NHS alcohol treatment services in the UK as 'dire'.

Kathy Gyngell, chair of Addiction Policy at the Center for Policy Studies Think Tank said 'My plea for policy makers to draw on the real life, non laboratory, experience of those who have recovered from addiction and those who successfully help others to do so'...

New Era - Outcomes & Results
In the new era of 'successful treatment outcomes and results' any treatment provider, residential, NHS or private should be able to demonstrate their treatment results by way of substantial client feedback as Health Minister Andrew Lansley said 'It is vital that we focus on the results and the outcomes of patients', those who are not successful will obviously lack this vital information.

Our Results
By comparison, we are the UK's leading, quickest and most successful alcohol treatment center. Not only do we have better outcomes and more successful results than anyone else, we are the only treatment center to have their client testimonials independently checked by 2 law firms to prove they are 'real and genuine'.

We can help all types of drinkers as our treatments work quickly by neutralising & erasing the effects of alcohol, so the individual finds it much easier to break the cycle and stop drinking.

When looking for help and support to stop drinking it's important to know what works and what doesn't so you don't waste your time or financial resources. Click here to read more.

Free Consultation
You are welcome to come and discuss our treatment and how we can help in more detail in either our London or Manchester clinics. Please click the link below to arrange or call us on 0845 466 1400.

Rather than the daily struggle not to drink, we can help break this cycle allowing the individual to carry on with their lives without the pressure or allure of alcohol being such a promient factor in their lives.

Ongoing Solution
When an individual has an ongoing problem with alcohol they need an ongoing solution with successful treatment, which a residential facility can not provide but we can.

Alcohol in the News
The Priory lose funding for alcohol treatment. Click here for other alcohol news stories and how alcohol problems are growing with many people drinking too much.

Daily Allowance
The recommended weekly allowance of alcohol for women is 14 units and 21 units for men. Click here for a quick guide on the different types of alcohol and their units.


Not a Residential Stay
If you are considering the expense of a residential stay, which cost around £8,000 to £20,000 for just 4 weeks you will be shocked to discover there is little to no specialist care or treatment available with many people returning to drink after they come out and have access to alcohol again.

Most rehabs then tell their clients they may need to attend rehab 2 or 3 times before they obtain any control, which is hardly realistic. In the new era of results and outcomes, a lot of residential treatment centers including the Priory are already losing their funding due to 'poor treatment outcomes'.

The reality of a residential stay is somewhat less than one would imagine or wish for, with the individual taking part in group counselling sessions based upon the 12 steps which are a regilious approach to stopping drinking.

The individual is also encouraged to spend time alone 'with their feelings' and doing chores such as cooking, vacuuming or cleaning. Click here for a typical daily schedule.

Quick Summary click here

Alcohol Rehab
Click here to read an article about what actually happens in Clouds rehab which involved little to no specialist care or treatment but cost £12,000 per stay.

Another patient said 'I have experienced a lot of different rehabs – some of them 12-step based, “Clouds” being one of the finest supposedly, but again I went 3 times and found the process too easy and comfortable – yes, it was based on the 12-steps, but in the 6 weeks we left with only 3 steps in hand'.

There are some people who are may benefit from this kind of approach if they are 'chaotic' or 'hard to deal with' as a residential stay provides a group setting for them to express themselves.

But there are many others who do not want this type of environment nor can they afford to be away from home or work for 6 to 12 weeks.

In addition, many people start drinking again when they leave residential care and have access to alcohol again as it does not help in the long term or to maintain their ongoing control.

Successful Alcohol Treatment
Our program is non-residential with clients attending for initial treatment for 2 hours each day over 5 to 8 days to stop drinking and regain control and then attend for further monthly treatment sessions to help maintain their ongoing control and support.

Drinkers of all types including: Regular, Heavy, Binge & Alcohol Dependents highly recommend this exclusive treatment as it does not rely on hypnosis, counselling, the 12 steps or harmful medication to get results.

Prior to treatment, many of our clients were unhappy because they were drinking so much, after treatment they were able to regain control and/or stop drinking which had a massive impact on their family life and personal happiness, please read some of their comments opposite.

Our established reputation has developed by being able to help people stop drinking with clients traveling to us from all over the UK and also flying from Spain, Scotland, Guernsey, Jersey & N Ireland to have this treatment.


Unique: Actual Treatment
Our unique methods represent the biggest breakthrough in alcohol treatment in the last 70 years.

It is the only treatment method which actually helps to reduce alcohol tolerance levels after each treatment session. Depending on how much a person drinks will determine how many sessions are required to stop, for most people this is between 5 to 8 sessions on the alcohol support program.

This pioneering & highly successful treatment has been used in the UK for over 6 years and in that time, over 5,000 people have benefited from our range of treatments.

The basis of frequency therapy is not new and was developed in Germany in 1977 using bio- frequencies.

Our treatment also uses harmless frequencies, which help to ‘switch off' the craving, or desire for alcohol, so that the drinking habit can be broken and stopped, as stopping the physical craving, is the key to stop drinking and maintaining long term abstinence.

Overdrinking
Excessive drinking will cause health problems but can also lead to family and relationship problems. However, most people find it very difficult to stop drinking because they don't have the willpower or support to stop.

The alternatives methods to help an individual stop drinking are not suitable for most people anyway as they don't want:

  • prescription drugs which have unpleasant side effects & dependency issues
  • an expensive one to three month residential stay following the 12 steps
  • weekly AA meetings which require a lifetime's dedication and spiritual guidance

We have helped many who suffer with alcohol problems to stop drinking and regain control and we would like to help many more who want to stop but are still struggling.

Our treatment is suitable for all types of drinkers:

  • Regular Drinkers
  • Heavy Drinkers
  • Binge Drinkers
  • Alcoholics

We also provide a private consultation service at either our clinic in Harley Street, London or Manchester to suggest a treatment plan that will help the individual to stop drinking and get their life back on track.

Tel: 0845 466 1400

Alcohol Dependent
Many alcohol dependents and their families already know the problems that heavy drinking can cause and what little help there actually is to stop.

'Dire' - GP/NHS Services
GP and NHS alcohol treatment services have been described as 'dire' by a Health Select Committee of MPs as patients are just prescribed drugs like benzodiazepines or valium to stop drinking but they don't work and have serious side-effects.

The Health Select Committee also accused PCTs of having ‘misplaced confidence' in their own ability to offer effective alcohol help due to 'complacency' among NHS managers.

Denial & Protectionism
In addition, critics have also accused GP's and PCT's of being in 'denial' over the effectiveness of NHS treatments to stop drinking due to the scale of the alcohol problem and of 'protectionism' as GP's have been told by their union the BMA to 'freeze the independent sector out of the NHS' and 'to keep patients within its own control' with some GP's earning up to £500,000 per annum rather than referring patients they can't help to 'outside specialists' as they do in the rest of Europe.

  • Dire Services
  • Misplaced Confidence
  • Complacency
  • Denial
  • Protectionism
  • Retain Patients

Not Anxiety Drugs
As a result, patients with alcohol problems are just prescribed anxiety drugs (anti-depressants) which don't work and don't help them to stop drinking but they are addictive and have other serious side effects.

Most people then develop a new set of problems and become dependent on these drugs which in most cases were completely unnecessary, critics say 'a new study concludes these type of drugs simply put people into 'drug-induced states'.



In addition many people don't want potentially harmful and addictive drugs such as Librium, Antabuse or Naltrexone with side effects and further drug-dependency. Please click here for the side-effects.

Not the AA or the 12 Steps
Some people hope that attending Alcoholics Anonymous will help them to stop drinking but they are shocked to discover there isn't any actual treatment only weekly meetings which follow the 12 steps and that many people who attend AA are still drinking. In fact, 81% of people drop out of AA meetings after the first month.

Many people come to us because they have failed with AA or they simply don't want to go and follow the 12 steps of Alcoholics Anonymous because they are too busy to attend weekly AA meetings, in addition the 12 steps demand a lifetime's commitment.

An Out of Date Concept?
Many experts think the 12 steps of AA, which were drafted over 70 years ago in 1935, are in any event, an out of date concept. In fact the Ditman Study provided evidence that AA is no more effective than no treatment at all. Click here for the 12 steps to see if they could help you to stop drinking?

95% of people who attend AA drop out because the 12 steps are not suitable or they don't want a program of group therapy nor can they wait for a 'spiritual awakening' through prayer and meditation to stop drinking.

Recap of other treatment options:

  • Medication
  • Talking Therapies
  • AA 12 Step Weekly Meeting
  • Residential Stay - 12 steps

Successful Alcohol Treatment
In complete contrast we offer a modern day approach using proven science & technology that is suitable for all types of drinkers, it is non-residential & private which means it offers everyone the opportunity of receiving successful treatment to stop drinking without medication, the 12 steps or the expense of a residential stay.


Our methods are exclusive and are based on physics rather than chemistry and therefore very different to any other treatment you may be aware of. After treatment(s) the individual has the normal access to alcohol but more importantly, finds it much easier not to drink.

How it Works
The treatment works by using physics and frequency to neutralise & erase the effects of alcohol.

The principle is called phase cancellation which is also used by sound engineers to neutralise unwanted background noise using 'frequency'. We can use this sample principle to neutralise unwanted substances (alcohol) which are then expelled through the body's natural detox process.

After treatment(s) the alcohol is no longer active and so it is much easier to stop drinking.

Treatments Work Quickly
Our clients stop drinking or start reducing their alcohol consumption from the first treatment session as the frequency patterns begin to break the circle of regular drinking by neutralising & erasing the effects of alcohol in the body.

Each treatment session reduces alcohol tolerance levels, so physically the individual; does not need to drink or feels they don't want to drink as much as they did before treatment. Clients comment, they do not want alcohol even though it is available they have no desire to drink.

Due to how the treatment process works and how clients reduce their alcohol consumption gradually (but quickly) they experience little to no alcohol withdrawal symptoms.

It is 100% safe, painless and has no side effects and produces noticeable results very quickly.

Treatment Process
The actual treatment process is simple and very relaxing, please click here to read more or click on the picture below.


Similar to how a radio picks up a frequency broadcast from hundreds of miles away, the body picks up the harmless but precise frequency patterns which neutralise & erase the alcohol in the body, after treatment the desire for alcohol has gone/reduced and clients confirm they have stopped drinking with very little effort, please read some of their comments opposite.

Each treatment process takes 2 hours, is very relaxing and more importantly, it is changing lives for the better.

We use physics & frequency instead of pharmaceutical or chemical intervention to detox the body and produce instant and life-changing results.

Continued Aftercare
The harmless treatment patterns which help stop the desire to drink are also be stored in the portable Bio-Capsule® which is included with the treatment and continues to emit the stop drinking program 24 hours a day providing our clients with constant treatment & continued aftercare.

How Will I Feel Afterwards?

Raising Awareness
Alcohol-related illness in England has soared over the past 10 years and it is thought that older drinkers are at risk of severe health problems because they often unknowingly exceeding the safe levels of alcohol drinking in the home. It's people who drink regularly, but not necessarily in huge quantities, who accumulate quite a lot over a week.

The danger level is defined as regularly drinking between 15 to 35 for women and 22 to 50 units a week for men.

Health Issues
Alcohol can be a dangerous drug. Drinking too much too often will cause physical damage, increase the risk of getting some diseases, and make other diseases worse. Excessive drinking over time is associated with:

  • hepatitis and cirrhosis of the liver
  • gastritis (inflammation of the stomach lining) or pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas)
  • high blood pressure (which can lead to stroke)
  • certain types of cancer, including mouth and throat
  • damage to the brain
  • heart failure
  • neurological problems such as epilepsy
  • certain types of vitamin deficiency

'A friend recommended the clinic after he stopped smoking and said he walked out having no craving at all and he hasn't smoked since. I decided to try it for alcohol, having got use to having a drink or two every day, I had got tired of being tired. After the treatment I didn't have a drink for 2 months, no cravings and had much more energy. I had a couple of drinks after that but then stopped completely, that was 11 months ago and counting. The main thing was absolutely no cravings or side effects. The treatment was relaxing and I wish I had done it months before I did'. Mr A.J.

"Following my treatment for alcohol addiction in October 2008 I have not drunk any alcohol. Alcohol had become a huge problem for me and my consumption was out of control. I was desperate to stop and luckily for me I found the clinic. I had two sessions and afterwards suffered no withdrawals or side-effects. The clinic has given me my life back, I cannot recommend the treatment highly enough". Sallie Burrows.

"Following my treatment, I have done well at not drinking. I did decide to have a drink one day as it was a school reunion, a rare event and beautiful day. I was pleasantly surprised at how well I controlled my drinking. Kind regards". S Smith

“I had my treatment for alcohol some months ago and feel very pleased about the outcome. I used to enjoy drinking beer on a daily basis (4 to 6 cans a day) and now I don't enjoy beer anymore, I did give it a try and didn't enjoy the taste. I tend to drink some wine once or twice a week (at the weekend) and nothing during the week and this makes me feel great within myself. Thank you so much”. Mr G. Syrauss (p.s. I also stopped smoking at the clinic over a year ago).

"I was a relapsed alcoholic in desperate need of help as I was starting to drink more and more, whiskey, beer, port on a daily basis. Searching the internet I came across the clinic and my wife contacted them. I started my treatment being very sceptical. I have had 6 sessions. After only 2 sessions I began to feel the difference cutting down gradually and finding to my amazement that I was beginning to sleep and eat better. After 3 sessions my cravings were diminishing as was the amount of drink. By the 4th session I had completely stopped drinking or even thinking about drink. I have decided to carry on the 12 month alcohol support program to give me confidence...
I was sceptical to start with but since having the 6 sessions I feel that this is something that the NHS should take on board since I have come through it with more confidence that I have stopped drinking for good but without the hang-ups of being told that I am an alcoholic". David Flemming

"I could go on about how amazing it feels not to have alcohol control me. I am truly thankful at getting my life back! And am not a hopeless functioning alcoholic - just got into a bad habit. It was so easy. Thank you to everyone involved in this amazing therapy". Cheryl.

"Found no difficulty abstaining for 5 weeks. Did not even need my sleeping tablets. It is now controlled drinking with 2-3 days abstinence a week. Regards". Chris

'It has been 7½ weeks and still no alcohol which is great. Thanks again and all the best'. K.G.

“My wife and I have both successfully completed the drink addiction course at Harley Street London”. Mr & Mrs Bob M. OBE

"After an ongoing drink problem (up to 1 bottle vodka a day) I decided to have the alcohol treatment at the clinic in Nov 09 (after a successfully heroin detox with them). I could also hardly believe that within 4 days I didn't want to drink and still don't want to drink. I feel that this treatment is nothing short of a miracle and would recommend it to anyone". Mr E Moore
[Mr Moore also completed a heroin detox, click here to read his detox comments].

"I would have no hesitation in recommending this treatment to anyone who thinks their drinking is getting out of control. I didn't drink every day but when I did I couldn't stop after 1 or 2 glasses of wine I had to have the bottle or more. I tried to give up on my own but something would always happen and I'd crave a drink and start again. Since having the treatment on 5 Sept 09 I have not touched a drop of alcohol but what is even better is that I have absolutely no desire to, all cravings for alcohol have gone. It may seem like a lot of money to pay for something that seems too good to be true, but believe me it really does work. If you are reading the website then you are halfway to helping free yourself from alcohol, I would say go for it - you really will not regret it!!". Yvonne B

"I feel much better and would recommend your treatment to anyone. More feedback next month when I will have had 8 weeks of abstinence, then decide whether to re-introduce alcohol at all! Many thanks". Update: "After 8 weeks, I can say I feel and sleep well and don't have cravings for alcohol. Long may it continue. I cannot thank you enough after endless other treatments which worked for a while [days], your treatment certainly works. I shall keep you informed of my progress, at present I do not feel the need for alcohol at all". David R

"The 4 weeks abstinence was surprisingly easy, I found it very easy to do, so the treatment obviously works!. I had 2 glasses of wine on Christmas day (being the end of the 4 weeks) and they went straight to my head. During the first 4 weeks, I had many Christmas parties and occasions to attend and it was very refreshing to be sober and in control and also having a really good time without the need for alcohol. Hopefully I can progress now to my goal which is no alcohol during the week and limited at the weekends. Thanks to Tony for all his helpful hints and guidance". Myra M

"Everything is going well without alcohol, I'm feeling better in health and pocket for that. Many thanks". Sheila H

"I am please to report a successful treatment. Despite going out for dinner on the first evening of the treatment and having two separate holidays in the first four weeks after the treatment I am really please to advise that I have abstained from my usual alcohol intake with relative ease. This has been all the more rewarding since there has subsequently been a change in my circumstance which previously would have almost certainly have necessitated a glass or two of wine to help ease the problem. Last night I tried my first sip of red in four weeks and was shocked to find that I did not like it. I later tried some of my usual white wine and again was shocked to find that I did not enjoy it. I believe that the treatment was a success and am now more confident in your expectation that my ‘need' for alcohol will reduce in the future". Karen

"All going brilliantly. Thank you". & "In to week 14 (3 months) now and doing incredibly well".
S Pratt

"I had the treatment only a couple of months ago and cannot believe that I can be a social drinker and not really wanting to drink! I have been suffering for about 20 years and have never been able to control my drinking and was always afraid to go out. I have been on holiday recently and been out a few nights and to my amazement have not got out of control and feel so much happier and more confident. It's great to have let go of that fear and the shame I always used to feel. I cannot understand how it works and was extremely sceptical and at the time thought it was too good to be true. I am very thankful for getting my life back and wished I had had it done years ago. Thanks Andy". Marie B

"It's worked! I haven't had a drink nor any desperate urge to imbibe since the treatment over a month ago. I feel proud to have my self-control back thanks to your oh-so-easy treatment. Sleep is better, my mind clearer and I'm sure my liver is thanking me. Here's to another month of tee-totaling and enjoying evenings without wine but rather more family friendly entertainment".
Mr Lockers

"Like so many others who have had this treatment, my drinking was getting increasingly out of control, I just didn't know when to stop. I was becoming increasingly dependant and out of control. The use of alcohol to relax, prepare for meetings even towards the end making a phone call, was compelling. I came across the clinic on the web and desperate for help booked in with some skepticism at that stage and had very little hope. The treatment was both painless and effective my first month alcohol free flew by. I have lost weight, regained my confidence and self respect. Thank you and I would recommend this treatment whole heartedly”. Ms N. S

"Things seem to have worked well and I have only had one glass of wine in the last 4 weeks which was Friday and I did not want it, tasted pretty awful". Rob B

"It's been almost a month now since I had the treatment and I'm pleased to say - for me - it has worked. I haven't touched a drop of the stuff since my treatment and I've suffered virtually no withdrawal and absolutely no cravings at all. Yes, I still had to deal with the associations and habits I've formed, but it's remarkable how easy that is to do when you don't physically crave drink anymore. The best way I can describe it is, before I had my first treatment, alcohol was this big, overwhelming issue that dominated my thoughts. I'd physically crave drink and because of that, focused on it a lot. After my last treatment, this huge problem suddenly seemed so small and silly. Alcohol no longer dominated my thoughts and, although it might cross your mind once or twice, it is a fleeting thought and with no cravings or withdrawal to back it up, is very much easier to dismiss. I truly believe the worst, for me, is over now and I'm even feeling that at some point I could re-introduce alcohol into my life with much more control than I had over it before. I'm not here to sing the praises of this treatment, only to say that it has done for me what it promised to do. Yes, it was expensive, but I'm making the money back already in all the drink I'm not buying! Much Love". Ryan

"I am doing well on the program and have managed to break my daily drinking habit. I've had drinks on three occasions where it was pretty difficult to avoid it without drawing undue attention to myself. However I kept it to one glass of wine in a long evening without feeling nervous, bored, strained or agitated. It is nice to enjoy social events and alcohol although I never would have thought it possible. I feel great and lots of people comment how good I am looking. R Black

"I am doing really well and have not touched a drop of alcohol since I last saw you. I am feeling much better, sleeping and eating well. I have lost 8lbs so far!". Mr J Beaumont

"Since I had your treatment at the beginning of September I haven't drank any alcohol and felt much better in myself. I sleep well and find that I am much calmer and able to deal with the stresses of work etc in a much more rational way. I have also started to exercise 3/4 times a week and have lost 3 kilos over the past month. So many thanks for all your help". Chris Gold

"Thank you for everything the combined alcohol and cocaine treatment seems to have worked, went out for my birthday night out with all my drinking buddies and did not touch a drop of alcohol or indulge in a line! Thank you". Hayley H

"Well it's now 9 weeks. I have been out with friends and had a drink twice since the 6 week target. However that's it, there has been no drinking at home at all and the best thing is I still don't want it. I probably would have preferred not to drink when I was out with friends but sadly there is peer pressure even at 34. I really still can't believe how well this is all going and it's all thanks to you. I am so much happier and I don't ever want to go back and if it could get any better, I am a stone lighter. Hope you are well, kindest regards". Claire M

"I had the treatment to stop drinking just over 5 weeks ago and am feeling healthy & positive. Thanks". Mr B.R. Hayes

'I cannot believe how easy it has been not to drink. I haven't touched any alcohol since my visit over 6 weeks ago but the thing that amazes me is that I don't even want to an I can see myself continuing not to drink because I can't see the point now. I haven't told anyone about this treatment apart from my husband but there are 2 friends that I think will benefit greatly from it and I will be telling them all about it, once I have passed the 3 month mark. Many thanks again'. Mrs Y B

"Just to let you know, all going very well. Thanks for your help". Sue M

"Since my treatment and in the last month I have had 5 glasses of wine very heavily diluted with sparkling water with no desire to follow on and have a second glass. I would have normally drunk around 120 glasses of wine in a month, so a great result. Thanks". Later comments: "It's still going well and I have considerably reduced my alcohol intake. Thank you". Mrs D.L.

"I'm pleased to report that things are going so much better and life is looking brighter". Eileen M

"Having given up smoking three years ago, I was already aware of the power of this treatment. Although on the lower end of the alcohol abuse scale, I had slipped into a pattern of daily drinking which seemed to be on the increase and getting out of control. I am thrilled to say that the treatment has been amazing, no desire to drink at all and back to full energy and concentration. The icing on the cake is the 10lbs in weight I have lost in just four weeks. Thank you so much". Mrs Frances S.

"So far, so good, it's been a breeze and I'm amazed it is so easy not to drink, thanks". Julia N

"I am amazed at how successful your treatment has been. I was sceptical to begin with but imagine my surprise when I arrived home after my first treatment and was happily able to ignore the bottle of chilled white wine sitting in my fridge! It just never occurred to me to want a drop. I am now into my fifth week of not rushing home to have my first drink of wine of the evening. At the weekends, I no longer wait impatiently for the 'sun to be over the yardarm' so that I can open my first bottle. It is very liberating. I received some very good, long-awaited, news last Tuesday and a coupe of colleagues and I went out for lunch to celebrate. We shared a bottle of champagne over a long, enjoyable lunch and returned to the office ready for work. I was slightly concerned that it was too soon and I would return to my old way as soon as I got home, but I need not have worried. I still find it a little strange, but the last thing I wanted or needed was a glass of wine to 'relax'. Barring any further cause for celebration, I intend to complete another four week of total abstinence. After that, I look forward to a future of good times that are not dependent on whether I have a glass of wine in my hand but which I can enjoy even if I have. It's nice to know when to stop and to be able to do so. Many thanks indeed". Mrs M O'Brien

"I am extremely pleased to tell you it has been totally successful so far - now over 5 weeks. Kind Regards". M Clarke

"It has now been six weeks since my treatment and they have been so liberating. Prior to treatment I was drinking all day everyday about 8 to 12 can of strong larger but I have not touched alcohol since. I was suffering from depression and on anti-depressants but no longer need to take them. To be free from addiction is like being reborn and everyday is full of opportunities and experiences. I urge anyone who is struggling with addiction to try this and take control of their lives again. Big thanks for making it all possible". Sally Burrows.

"I have found the treatment very useful and have found that my cravings have been greatly reduced. I would like to say a big thank you to all". David C

“I must say I am extremely happy with the treatment and although I have had a drink, I can stop at a glass of wine and don't have a burning desire to have more! I am definitely recommending it to people with similar problems. Many thanks”. Rona H.

"Just a quick update, all is good so far since my treatment 4 weeks ago. It has been remarkably easy not to drink since my treatment. Many thanks". Joan C.

"I am writing with some feedback regarding your treatment for alcohol abuse and I am happy to say I have found it brilliant and quite astonishing. I do not think I was totally alcohol dependent but never knew when to stop before and one bottle would inevitably lead to two. I have reintroduced alcohol and found I really enjoy a glass of wine - but not all wine and it has really made me quite selective about what I drink. The difference in 2 types of wine are so great to me now. I do not drink something I don't like anymore. Actually I have only had 3 glasses of wine since the treatment and am looking forward to Christmas without the dread of hangovers from hell. Thanks a lot I would recommend this to anyone who has similar problems - I also feel healthier and get much more done". Paul R.

"Since my treatment 6 weeks ago, the course is working very well so far". Mr Alan J

"Hi I thought I would just write to say how pleased I am with the treatment. Like many of your clients I feel like I have had my life back. It is fantastic. I have had no cravings for alcohol though occasionally the habit may tempt me but I have managed and not drunk since the treatment. Yours with thanks". Mo Roberts.

"Just to let you know how I am doing. I haven't had any alcohol at all since my visit and the best part is, I don't want it. I can't believe how its possible but all cravings have gone. I feel so much happier and I am really pleased with how I am doing. I'm not actually sure if I ever want to have another drink again, which means I am probably going to need a new set of friends, lol. I used to be waiting for wine o'clock (as soon as the kids were in bed) but now I'm just busy doing other things. I feel I am gradually getting my life back on track. I really can't thank you enough for helping me out of my hole. Hope you are well and thanks again". Claire M

"I have been pleased with the results. I had four alcohol free weeks with relative ease I then decided to drink at the weekend and plan to only drink at the weekends for the foreseeable future, as this feels achievable now. Thanks". Ann O.

"So far so good! Found the month without drinking easier than I expected. Regards". Paul C

"Many thanks for my treatment, I now feel confident that as a result I will be successful in maintaining an alcohol free life and do not have any urges to consume alcohol whatsoever. It was money well spent so I have no hesitation in recommending your clinic as a result of the outcome and my continuing sobriety". Sam K.

"Hi, just letting you know I am doing good now I have got back my control over the booze. I haven't been drunk since having the treatment I have the odd glass of lager now but don't feel the need to drink to excess. My life is back on track and I now realise drink was causing most of my problems. I am glad I came to you or I don't know what would have become of me. It was worth the financial cost to me to get back the real me. Thanks again". Jane N.

"I travelled from Jersey and have been brilliant since my 3 day alcohol and the stop smoking treatment. I have not smoked or drank since the treatment which is fantastic. I have to admit to being nervous about the treatment beforehand in case it did not work as it is not cheap. However, my doubts were unfounded. I could not believe the difference especially after the smoking session. I was chain smoking beforehand and came out without a single craving! It really did feel like a miracle and I am so happy to have my life back - and my sanity. it has not only "cured" me of the physical addiction but has broken the emotional need too. I am back in control and I'm a new woman, so thank you". Karen B.

“I had treatment in November 08 and had my reservations about the cost and whether this would work. I can't believe that I drive home everyday now and go to the shop and don't even think about buying a couple of bottles of wine - especially over Christmas I had half glass of Cava on boxing day, feeling very healthy and have much more money in my pocket, thank you”. Karen C

"Despite being in the pub several times with friends or taking my wife out for a meal it still makes me smile that I can easily say No to an alcoholic drink. Even a beer-shandy, which I might have had in the past, has no attraction. So, still amazing. Over 2 months and while I have thought about having a drink I have never felt 'tempted' to have one". Stewart M.

"I have not had a drink since my visit a month ago and am extremely grateful for all you have done for me, thank you". Further comments: "Just a quick note to say that I am very happy to report that I have not had a drink since your course over 2 months ago. I have had no desire or craving for a drink. Occasionally I have had a pang that pops into my head saying “Now would be a perfect moment for a drink” but never a craving. I am very impressed with your treatment, thank you". Further comments: "4 months in and still on course, despite some overwhelming pressures not a slip up has been had. Thank you again". Patrick S.

"5 weeks since treatment and going well with no drinking". Mr Jim G

"I am absolutely amazed at the impact the treatment sessions have had on my desire to drink. I had looked for years for a way out of my 'habit' of taking one day out each week to binge, which actually cost me 2 days each week, the second being needed to recover from the effects of the first! I knew I did not possess the willpower alone to break the pattern and oddly I would go for days without any alcohol and then spend a day bingeing and the next day in recovery. I had considered a trip to a rehab unit but the idea of 2 weeks away from my business in group therapy sessions just did not appeal, so to come across your clinic was a real breakthrough, and it has worked. This is the intervention I had been looking for to support me in changing the pattern of behavior that was becoming so self-destructive. And one month along the road I have still not had any alcohol, either in drink or any food. There have been some frustrating times with work when I felt I needed a drink to unwind but those times have been few, I have smiled and sometimes had a cup of tea or sparkling water. And the effect of this abstinence? A clear head for one thing, an appreciation of living without a hangover, getting more work done and feeling pride that I have actually broken the pattern I have been trapped in for so many years. And the most important to me has been my wife's appreciation of my achievement. So thank you for the new start, I have told several friends and clients about your clinic and they are thinking about the treatment for themselves. With all good wishes". Stewart M.

"I always enjoyed a drink, never really thought of myself as an 'alcoholic' and yet realised that on many occasions I would over-do things, lack of discipline to say 'no thanks' this applied to both social and business scenarios. 3 years ago my father died of liver cancer, brought on by heavy drinking, his death had a profound affect on me and started to develop panic attacks, ironically drinking seemed to exacerbate these and I was in a vicious circle of my own making. I realised on too many emotionally painful occasions 'the morning after' that I needed help but didn't know where to turn to. It occurred to me that drinking was starting to win the battle and the war over who was the real me and I was just sitting back and letting it, in fact I was encouraging it by not stopping, I was completely trapped. I now realise that all this was making me very, very unhappy. I found the treatment easy and relaxing and now feel truly happy and being me for the first time in years, I have to report that I can't find anything negative about the treatment. I've had many opportunities which would have normally tested me, Birthdays: I just said I wasn't drinking and it felt incredibly empowering to look someone in the eye and tell them I didn't drink. Relationship split: normally an automatic response was to grab the nearest bottle of wine and drown my sorrows. I'm still 100% sober. Work pressure: Lots of pressure to have a 'liquid debrief' at the end of a busy day. No problem, I'll have a soda and lime. Finally a holiday in Egypt and for the first time in my life I described myself as a non-drinker, it just out of my mouth naturally as if I'd been saying it for years and I felt fantastic. I feel great and have lost some weight and feel healthier than I've felt in years. I have no plans to go back to drinking at all and this feels so right for me, so if you are like me and any of the above has connected with you, then all I can say is 'do it'. Mark H.

"When I first attended the clinic I was drinking 3 liters of white lightening cider everyday. After my first lot of treatment I was down to 1½ liters and after the second session was down to just a mug and a half. I reduced to a quarter of a coffee mug after my fourth session and today I have had nothing and don't even feel like drinking. I am now starting to eat and sleep and feel a lot better about myself.” Karen Morley

"I was at the end of my tether with respect to my levels of drinking and I would say without any doubt that I was an alcoholic and dependent upon alcohol both physically and mentally. My drinking was out of control and it was ruining my work life and my home life. I was drinking at least half a bottle of spirits a day and sometimes more. This I had been doing for some considerable period of time. I did not feel complete unless I had a drink inside me. I really didn't know what to do. I usually drank at home, alone when I retuned from work and then during the past couple of years I was drinking at least 2 to 3 large measures of spirits (6 units) before I headed off for work. Often I was drunk at work. I was frightened to stop drinking in case I suffered symptoms of alcohol withdrawal (which I did when I tried to cut down), so I carried on drinking, gradually increasing my units without actually realising it. I have a managerial position in an office and could not afford the time to enter into a residential detox program and did not want to take medication for fear of becoming addicted. I made enquiries and decided to undertake a course of treatment. Tony said that with the amount of alcohol I was consuming I would need four sessions. I was skeptical to say the least but felt that I had no other options. I completed the treatment over four weeks ago and can say that I have not had a drink since (and more importantly have not fancied one). I have been to many social events with work colleagues where alcohol has been flowing and have been happy to stick to soft drinks. My skin looks better and I feel that I totally have my life back. My relationship with my partner has improved 100%. Its made such a difference. I am proud of myself. I have had no withdrawal symptoms at all and feel that I have totally got my life back on track. The treatment is expensive but I am saving so much money not buying alcohol that in the long run I will be saving money. If anyone is in two minds about this treatment, please don't be - its worked for me and I was in bad way. Thank you so much its so much better now! Best wishes". Ms S. H.

“Just a quick note to tell you how I am doing, I am still not drinking after two weeks, I  am amazed at how different I feel now, I'm back at the gym and swimming three times a week, all that stopped when I was on the brandy. We went for a meal to celebrate our anniversary after the meal the waiter brought us a small glass of Baileys on the house, I drank it and really enjoyed it, normally I would have had a few brandies with my meal but I didn't feel the need for another drink either then or when I got home. Sometimes I find myself thinking about alcohol, but that's all, I don't feel the need to have a drink. It's great going to bed knowing I won't be waking up with a hangover, I can remember conversations I've had the day before. To anyone thinking of having the treatment, all I can say is IT WORKS, thank you. I will keep you posted on my progress, thanks again”. Jane N.

"I was drinking 10 to 15 bottles of Cobra beer every night after work, ever since my treatments I have had no cravings or urges to drink any alcohol. I have tried hypnotherapy in the past on numerous occasions which were short lived. I will be back soon to give up smoking as I am amazed at the results. After years of hypnotherapy for alcohol and smoking I can truly say the clinic method works for both as my father also visited 6 weeks ago for smoking and he has also stopped. Thank you". Mr M A.

“The two treatment seems to have done the trick, thirty-one days now without alcohol and no desire to have a drink. I'm very pleased with the results so far”. Brendon F.

"I am really happy with the treatment I had with you. I have not stopped drinking completely as this was never my intention but I did not drink at all for the first 2 weeks, something I haven't accomplished in over 10 years. I no longer drink alone and I have stopped drinking at home. This means that when we do go out, I start the evening sober and not a bottle of wine ahead of everyone else. My husband is over the moon as I am far less anxious, I have already lost 7 pounds in weight and look far less bloated in my face. I realise that I am only a month into the program but I feel really positive about the future. Thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to turn my life around". Kathryn B.

"After trying numerous treatments during my long battle with alcohol addiction I was surfing the internet with a growing sense of desperation looking for something or someone who could end my daily nightmare of living with a condition that was threatening to end my life, death a condition from which there is no recovery. Luck was with me that day and the clinic appeared on the screen. Having tried all the old way, I had nothing to loose and made contact. I admit on the day of the treatment I did not hold out much hope but I was rapidly running out of options. I had spent a fortune on previous detox treatments, counselling and even tried AA, all of which left me feeling poorer and more hopeless. From the very first treatment I felt like I been re-born, the depression I had been suffering from was lifted, I suffered no withdrawals symptoms and felt re-energised and had a zest for life the like of which I had not experienced since childhood. Three weeks on and I am back to have the stop smoking treatment having not drunk alcohol since my second treatment, I now want to be totally drug and addiction free and as I know the treatment works why try anything else. I feel evangelical and want to share my news with everyone. Miracles happen and I urge anyone struggling with addiction to take the plunge and change their lives for the better forever, eternal thanks, extraordinary!”. Mrs S Burrows

"Hi, I had my treatment about two months ago in April 08 (two sessions). I did not have a drink for the first four weeks with no problem and felt really good and even completed a 100 mile cycle ride for charity. I did start to drink again but a lot less than before which has now made me realise how ill I felt all the time. The treatment is well worth having done as it has made me realise just how good you can feel without the drink. I intend to have total control from now on". Stephen G

"Things are going great. I'm five weeks into my detox now and have not had any alcohol at all, despite going out socialising as there has been no cravings at all and actually enjoyed myself more, with no headache in the morning. I feel good for not drinking in lots of ways and have lost weight as well, all in all a very good move". Further comments after 10 weeks: "After drinking for 25 years and finding I needed more alcohol consumption and on a regular basis, I stumbled across your clinic whilst having a hangover, I thought this is too good to be true but thought I wanted to try it. I read the testimonials over and over again then booked a 2 day session for the 3rd & 4th of April and from that day to this (12th June) I have only tried a glass of lager. I have decided that's it for me now, no more drinking, I don't think about it nor miss it. I have not felt this good in years and feel my family have benefited also. If you are thinking about this treatment then you are half way there, go for it, you will never look back. Thank you for doing my treatment, it was the best decision I have ever made". Michaela L.

"I have had a couple of drinks since my treatment and am feeling fine. No urges to have more. No more hang-ups about letting people know that I don't want a drink". Martin D.

"My husband is a GP and his drinking was getting out of control, he had 3 days of treatment for alcohol misuse a month ago and he is doing really well, so thank you. For me, it feels like I have the person back I married 20 years ago. We are getting on so well and the children are much happier. He looks so much healtheir and has lost weight too. I am so pleased that we found you".
Mrs V.T.

"Mum is doing absolutely great since her last visit to you, better then ever before and I'm so grateful". Debbie B.

"I was a bit sceptical at first but having tried everything else I was at a loose end with being out of control when having consumed alcohol. The more I tried to quit alcohol the more I failed and always ended despairingly depressed. I had two treatments and followed the simple
instructions and I have been amazed that I have gone a month without alcohol, the longest period in my life, the craving just isn't there. I am thrilled to bits as my whole life is seeing wonderful improvement and results". Mr Mark B.

"Just giving you an update on my progress after four sessions, I have not had any desire to drink at all! I can't believe it. As I have just moved house, I thought I would have a celebration white wine and soda, it was mostly soda and woke up with a hangover, considering I was such a heavy drinker, I cannot believe the change. I have more energy I'm eating better and can actually taste food again. I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for the wonderful job you are doing and to say to anyone out there, if it can work on a hardened drinker like me, it can work for anyone, with many, many thanks". Dave T.

"I have to say that I have been really impressed that I have not had a drop of alcohol in over a month, sometimes I do think about it but there is no physical desire to drink. Thank you for all your help. Mrs T. E.

"I had two treatments five weeks ago for my habit of consuming too much wine most evenings. I suffered from serve depression, panic attacks and agoraphobia. I thought the wine would make me feel better, but catch 22! the pleasure was only temporary. On arrival at the clinic I was shaking with having to leave home and drive to an unfamiliar place. You made me feel very welcome and the treatment was so relaxing, no side-effects, no pain, in fact quite pampering. On leaving after the second treatment, my clutch pedal failed at a horrendous motorway intersection. My usual reaction would be to pass out with fright, however I switched on my hazards, redirected the traffic and called the garage. No panic - perfectly calm and no mad rush for a glass of wine! I then had a bottle of mineral water, made dinner and started on neglected housework. Since then, my house is immaculate, years of paperwork caught up on, garden worthy of being open to the public! I sleep well, have lost over a stone in weight without dieting and have no depression, loads of confidence, dress up and wear make-up again. My visiting relatives couldn't believe they had the old 'me' back and keep ringing to say how proud they are of me. Of course I can still have alcohol socially but really haven't felt the slightest need, even though I have alcohol in the house for visitors. They drink in front of me and I care 'not a jot'. Thank you for my treatment and I wish this treatment could be available on the NHS, we'd have far fewer social ills". Pauline G.

"I have found it relatively easy not to drink after my 3 days of treatment. I had 1 glass of wine this weekend after more than 4 weeks and stopped after half a glass as I just wasn't enjoying it anymore". Debra B.

"It has been a successful six weeks although I did have a glass of red wine that tasted disgusting! I will send in fuller feedback at a later stage but wanted to thank you in the meantime for getting me back on a level start". Mrs Maria M. Further comments 2 months later: "Things are still going well and feel very in control these days. I would recommend anyone who feels that alcohol has or is becoming an unbreakable habit to try this treatment. I am getting the best sleep I've had in years and wake up refreshed and energetic. Thank you". Mrs Maria M.

"I came to see you at Harley St, concerned that my drinking was gradually creeping up and becoming too much of a habit and that the mornings when I felt below par were getting closer together. Either way, I wanted a bit of help to break that pattern. I can tell you this treatment works! The night of my treatment I was already committed to a dinner with friends and that would normally have been an evening where I would have seen off a fair quantity of wine. I joined them for pre-dinner drinks and we stayed there all the evening until closing time. I drank fizzy water and felt quite happy to do so. I have started to break away from the idea that I can't enjoy a social occasion without a drink. I have no problem with others drinking around me. The high spot was the second weekend where we went to stay with some old friends for a long weekend, with whom it would normally have been a seriously boozy weekend. I would without hesitation (and have already done so) recommended this to anyone and everyone who is worried about what they might be doing to themselves with alcohol. Thanks, it was worth every penny!". Robert R.

"I had my treatment a month ago and I have had one bottle of wine in a month! I use to drink a bottle or two of wine a night. The treatment has been a godsend and it has changed the way I feel about drinking, I do not need to drink, as I don't feel like any alcohol at all". Lisa N.

"I'm doing really well and thanks once again for all your assistance". Mrs P Jones.

"I have not had a drink since I came to see you which is really, really excellent. The treatment has worked with my physical cravings 100% - fact. I have not had a drink for a month and intend not to have one for at least another two months minimum, as I do not yet trust the sober me. Many, many thanks". Amanda M.

"Hi, I hope all is well. I've completed the treatment programme, and have not drank in almost 2 months and feel in control, thanks". Miss Jennifer K.

"On my 45th birthday I decided to have two days of alcohol treatment in July 2007 and now ten months later thanks to this treatment, my alcohol consumption is still under my complete control. Now I am able to enjoy alcohol in moderation and drink responsibly and sociably rather than every single night. I had this treatment because I was very concerned that my health was starting to suffer after 28 years of drinking with heartburn, pains in my left upper chest and in the morning's pains in my lower back. My weight was also increasing despite eating less and less. Like many other parents I started drinking after work to relax and unwind just after the kids had gone to bed. Many a morning I would get up and say to myself that “I won't drink tonight” but by 8.00p.m. the wine or spirits were flowing again. I was conscious of my predicament that I wanted to stop or reduce my alcohol but it was impossible. I felt worried and helpless but didn't want to see my G.P. about the problem so it was a real concern. In reality my evening treat and reward of alcohol was slowly killing me! Since my treatment life has changed and I feel liberated and free of the daily drinking habit. The cravings for alcohol are gone and I no longer have a habit of drinking every evening and now enjoy drinking sociably and moderately and the health benefits have been very worthwhile. I have lost 18 pounds and my waist has reduced by 4 inches without dieting. I am no longer bloated, enjoy eating healthier and do regular exercise so it's been a complete change brought about by reducing my alcohol consumption to recommended levels. I will keep you informed of my progress and hope you can see there is a solution for those drinking too much each day". Andy W.

”I have been a heavy drinker for the last fifteen years now and was desperate for something that would work as quick as possible for me as my drinking was starting to effect my working life. I contacted clinic in a panic and spoke to Tony about five weeks ago. I have not been drinking during the week since then and find this fantastic. I managed to get some sleep after the first week which, I was really pleased with and never once craved any alcohol, this was a complete shock to me as every time I came home from work I would normally have reached for a drink. I would highly recommend this treatment to anyone looking to stop drinking, it is fantastic!!! I'm now in control and can have a drink with my friend and family without getting drunk any more, my family are so proud of me (and so am I) I found this treatment to be very easy and hope that you all out there with an alcohol problem choose the same treatment, it's brilliant! Thanks a million for all your help and I look forward to speaking to you very soon. Good luck to everyone who tries this wonderful treatment. Lots of love, A friend!!!”. Mrs C.L.

“Well since my one treatment with you to stop drinking, it hasn't been that hard not to drink, I did have a drink one Saturday night and straight after having it thought, why did I do that? I knew I didn't want a drink it was just habit. When I woke up on the Sunday morning I realised that I didn't want alcohol anymore. I wont say I'll never drink again but will just drink now on the odd occasion but will never go back to drinking a bottle of wine a night again, I know that for sure, I just don't want to! I feel I have really turned my life around for the fitter and healthier, all thanks to this treatment. I am amazed now that I ever consumed 1 bottle of wine a night in the past. I would recommend this treatment to anyone who feels they are addicted to drink and want to stop. I could not have come this far had it not been for clinic. Thank you so much for your help, I will keep in touch to let you know how I am doing". Ms Janet Flint.

"Here I am progressing well, not having had an alcoholic drink since my treatment and I'm very impressed. I can't say I haven't thought about having a drink but the major difference is that I haven't had one, whereas in the past, I definitely would have done. Thanks so much for your help. I plan to keep us this abstinence for at least another 4 weeks and then gradually return to drinking in a more controlled way. I feel so much better for it and definitely feel more in control. With kind regards and thanks again!. Mrs Sue M.

"Just a quick note to let you know I am doing extremely well. I have not had a drink since my treatment with you on the 7th & 8th February 08. Thank you so much for your help". Mrs S. O.

"I'm really impressed, I used to drink 1½ to 2 bottles of wine in 2 to 3 hours in an evening, occasionally preceded (and/or followed) by beer or spirits. I have even been known to buy 3 bottles of wine on the way home and stop just around the corner from home to drink the extra one. To have gone from something like 120 units a week, which I consumed continually for the last 7 to 8 years, to zero is a real eye-opener. It's my longest break from alcohol in 14 years and at this point in time I do not intend to start drinking again at any time in the future, that may change but for the moment this is my intention. Thank you very much". Paul S

"I felt that I had to write this feedback. The treatment has been amazing. My drinking was getting out of control I was drinking a bottle of wine most nights and when out just did not know when to stop, to the point that a couple of times I was so drunk I could not remember after a certain point in the evening or how I had got home. I found your site during a day off sick from work having drank too much the night before, I felt really down and realised I had to seriously do something about my drinking. I did not tell my family I was coming as I felt they would think I was mad spending that amount of money. But they did not know the true extent of my problem as I was very good at hiding it. Also all my family drink, so they didn't really notice when we were all together as they were drinking as well. I had two treatments. After the first treatment I went home and poured a glass of wine. I think I was waiting for some kind of magic spell to take over! I actually poured it down the sink because I realised I did not really want it! I have since been to four or five occasions where the drink was flowing freely and did not touch a drop. I didn't want to! I've been really stressed at work and have not even thought of pouring a drink when I get home. (still two bottles of wine in the fridge!) I would really recommend this treatment to anyone who is concerned that their drinking is getting out of control. I've lost count of the number of times I would promise myself I would only have one or two and it ended up one or two bottles. This has helped me stop. My family and friends are amazed but I haven't told them yet how I did it! But in time I will as I want to persuade two of them to try it as well. Thank you". Mrs H.A.

"I had tried many types of treatment before but nothing has ever had the immediate impact of this one. My compulsion to drink seemed to evaporate & now I feel much more in control & balanced in my approach to alcohol. If you want to cut down or give up, check this out!" Ms Marion S. Following comments: "Hi, I can't believe it's been 6 weeks already, time is flying by and I am still alright. I did have a glass of wine at a dinner party last weekend and I think I am definitely on the road to recovery, which in my case means responsible drinking and not bottle after bottle at home. I love a nice bottle of water now. Thank you". Ms Marion S.

"Before I started I was drinking over half a bottle of whiskey a day and for the last 12 months I had been 'out of the land of the living' and not able to sleep. I would go to bed at around 11pm and by 1am I would be back downstairs, sleep finished for the night. I was drinking far more than was good for me and my family told me that my speech was slurred and I started to have very shaky hands, which stopped me performing my main hobby painting. My daughter found clinic on the web and she and my husband booked me in for treatment which was painless and took about 2 hours each day. I've stopped drinking and I'm now able to take the dog out walking again as I hadn't been out on my own for over 6 months, I'm painting and most importantly sleeping normally. A brilliant treatment and clinic". Mrs Andrea B

"I came across your website while looking for treatments for my husband to help him give up smoking and I started to read some customer comments from people regarding alcohol and was amazed to say it was like reading about me and my alcohol usage, stress - have a drink, unhappy - have a drink, hard day at work - have a drink, so when I read how other people had found your treatment I amazed myself and booked a treatment. I cannot recommend highly enough this treatment for anyone who wants to take back control of their drinking, it's like a new found freedom. It worked from the very first evening after treatment, I just didn't want to drink any alcohol and although I thought about it the cravings were just not there. I went to restaurants, company evenings out and I just felt so relieved and proud of myself not wanting a drink. I have now completed my six weeks and I don't think about drink hardly at all, the only down side is I don't want to eat my favourite cherry liqueur chocolates, I physically cannot put one in my mouth!! P.S. I will make a smoking appointment for my husband shortly. Kind regards". Sue C

"Just a quick note to let you know how I'm doing, Christmas was a good... I have regained control and have got back on the right road and have not drunk anything at all, even though a house fire has increased the stress in my life at the moment! Anyway all in all, I'm feeling quite good about the whole thing and feel very good that my alcohol consumption has reduced to nearly nothing at all". Ms M Allen

"Thanks so much for your help. I didn't believe it could work but it has and now I feel in control of my life again. I've done really well in my first month. I haven't wanted to completely abstain, though I did for the first 3 weeks, I've had the occasional drink since but find I can' take it or leave it', best wishes". Jenny L

"You'll be curious to know how I have fared since I came in December and significantly before the Christmas and New Year. I definitely had developed a problem with alcohol and a reason to worry. I have not had to regret my decision to stop drinking, it worked! I even survived the Christmas and New Year celebrations, if that doesn't speak volumes, I don't know what does. I am feeling the benefits of not drinking now, more optimistic and more energetic. The first two weeks were a little of a roller coaster emotionally but then my mood picked up in a way I could not have expected and I intend to stay this way. This treatment was my present to myself and I thank you for doing this for me. I will not have a drink until my fathers celebrates his 60th in April. Will be in touch again". Dr C.H.

“It's really been an amazing couple of weeks. I appreciate it is early days but I haven't wanted a drink even once. Physically and psychologically I feel really very well and happy! Thanks for your help. Kind regards”. Pauline J

"Since undergoing a course of three treatment sessions, I have broken the cycle of drinking night after night. I've only had two alcoholic drinks and the results are amazing. I'm more focused and definitely more healthy. I would recommend this treatment to anyone". Keith B

“It's been six months since I had the alcohol treatment and all I can say is "Wow". I work in entertainment as a drummer, D.J. and producer where the booze is FREE. I never thought I would give up my 17 years of binge drinking so easily. Truly amazing!”. Oliver Grasset

"Great to be focused and more energetic. I am not feeling ill or guilty in the mornings and I am not depressed at all. I have had a five pounds weight loss after one month of not drinking. I have spent the time I would have been drinking doing new productive things. Hoping to stick with it now I know the difference". Ms Jennifer M

“I'm feeling very much in control of any desire to drink. I have been to so many 'functions' where alcohol has been flowing freely, have handed wine glasses full to friends but have not drunk myself. In social settings, it is now easier and easier to decline alcohol and not even be bothered by it. There have been other occasions at home, when I have realised that previously I would be sitting down and drinking and I have 'worked through' my reasons for doing so and still not drunk anything at all. This programme definitely works, one slips easily into abstinence mode with no side effects - now onto longer-term maintenance. Thank you for all your help”. Mrs Alison S

“I would like to book an appointment for controlling binge drinking, my wife Claire recently saw Andy to stop drinking and found it really beneficial, especially as a by-product she has lost 10 lbs in weight ready for Christmas!”. Stuart C

"Thanks a lot for the new capsule, feeling great. Really excited about how my life has opened up. Thank you". Ms S.A.

“After one month of not drinking I can say that this programme works well and effectively. There have been no cravings whatsoever for alcohol, I have been aware of times when I would have easily joined the crowd and imbibed, but did not. I have been aware of some thoughts ‘I need a drink' and coped with the habit of opening a bottle. I feel I am well into breaking the habit of drinking, I don't want to drink and even with Christmas ahead, I don't want any alcohol at all! The treatment has put me firmly in control and that is where I want to be, not alcohol controlling me. I now look forward to maintaining this status for the rest of my life. Perhaps the occasional glass of wine for a birthday celebration, a special occasion would be fine but I never wish to drink a bottle of wine on my own again and certainly never out socially”. Mrs A.S.

"I attended for an alcohol detox treatment on the 2nd November and I can't believe how my first month has gone and whilst I have thought about alcohol, it hasn't been causing any concern whatsoever as I have been able to dismiss any thoughts. I certainly don't have any cravings, as you promised when questioned dozen's of times by me and I feel and look a whole lot better. So far, since stopping drinking I have hosted and been at quite a few parties and events and have been absolutely fine. By having the treatment I feel as though I have my very own secret weapon that is protecting me and supporting me to be what I want to be with confidence. I have also had a few situations where I would normally reach for a drink of wine and did not and was still OK. As an additional bonus I have also lost 6llbs in 4 weeks and I have not been dieting, by not having wine it means I don't have chocolates, crisps, nibbles or anything else as I usually have the munchies when drinking wine. I am going to carry on abstaining until at least after Christmas and then take it from there and funnily enough, I'm not bothered at the thought! Best regards and thank you for the your treatment”. Ms Carol B

"I tried two glasses of wine this weekend, I ended up pouring away both after a few sips. I simply didn't need it. Four weeks ago I was deeply sceptical about this treatment but I was so anxious to break a 20 year habit of evening drinking that I took the plunge. I'm delighted I did and only regret not knowing about it earlier". Mrs Jan Collie

"Before I went to the clinic I was drinking a bottle of wine a day sometimes more at the weekend. I wanted to get help, as I knew this was beginning to damage my health and family. I had one treatment, which was over a month ago and I haven't had one day when I felt that I either needed or wanted to drink. I couldn't go into a shop before without looking for what wine I wanted to buy. Now it doesn't even enter my head, I have even had several social occasions where I would normally have drunk alcohol but even these have not fazed me. I can't begin to say how grateful I am and wish I had known about this treatment long ago. I don't know if I am going to introduce alcohol back into my life but at the moment I am happy without it, I know if I do it will be with the confidence that I can manage it on a social level as I always wanted to. It is never too late and I urge anyone who is worried about how much they drink to please give it a go - I can categorically say that it has worked for me and it will for you too. Thank you for giving me back my life". Mrs Denise C

“I have successfully completed one month without alcohol and feel happy now to continue on my own without any backup. I am absolutely amazed how well your system has worked. I was skeptical even after having received the treatment but the proof is in the pudding as they say. I hope now to have a completely different relationship with alcohol, one in which I stay in control. So thank you”. Carol P

"I've been feeling much better with more energy, I can now pass the wines and spirits isle without thinking about it". Rachel M

"Before I came to the clinic, I was really at the end of my tether. I had already been on 2 detox at the hospital, which were unsuccessful. I was drinking large amounts of alcohol every day, which was taking over my life. I saw the clinic on the internet and thought I would give it a go. After the very first session I felt a big difference, I didn't have the desire to drink and felt great. By the 3rd session I was feeling relaxed and in control of my life. I feel I have got my life back again. I would recommend this treatment to anyone with a drink problem". Joanne Lavery

"I had 2 sessions with you and have been thrilled with the results, NO DRINKING nor any inclination to! I will drink again moderately and may come back for a top up treatment if needed!”. Mrs Sally H

"I received two sessions in London for alcohol problems and it has been one month now since treatment and I have not drank since and plan to maintain this until after Christmas. Thank you for your help". G Murphy

"Not had an alcoholic drink since my treatment". Tony N

"I just wanted to say how grateful I am at how effective your treatment is. It's truly amazing how easy it has been to stop drinking for the last two months". Steve T

"I was very worried at first that the treatment would not work, I would not say that I drank every day but when I did drink I wouldn't know when to stop, this had been going on for 20 years. I embarrassed myself my family & friends. I went to the doctor for help, AA & a local alcohol counselling centre but nothing worked, as soon as I was stressed out or had a problem, I would drink until I would not think anymore but I would change into a different person, aggressive & nasty to people around me. The guilt & depression that followed the drinking was unbearable. The days spent in bed with a hangover, days missed from work. I wanted to go into rehab but could not afford it plus the fact I did not want people at work to know. I came across the website by chance when looking on the internet for a rehab place. I read everything, all the testimonials and thought all these people cannot be wrong. I rang up and had a chat about all my fears of the treatment not working. I told my close family & friends, many of them thought I was 'wasting my money' but I was so desperate to be rid of the alcohol problem I went up to Harley St at the beginning of June to have a 2 hour treatment and I am just so amazed that I no longer crave a drink. One week after having the treatment I went on holiday to Spain but never drank, I have had many social occasions and I have not had a drink & have enjoyed myself so much more. I am not stressed as much, things do not upset me as much anymore, problems are sorted easier, all the things that I thought the drinking was helping me with. I like nothing better now than a nice cup of tea or cherry coke. It may to some sound boring but this is the best thing I have ever done for myself. I did have 2 glasses of wine after about 4 months but I discovered that I did not like it anymore. I cannot recommend enough the treatment. If you are reading this, please, please have the treatment, you will never look back and you will be free of the destructive affects that alcohol has on you". Karen A

"Like many men in their mid fifties I got into the habit of drinking at home.  A typical day's consumption for me starting at about 6.00 in the evening (I never drank during the day) would be a pint of lager on the way home from work then at home one and a half bottles of white wine and 2 or 3 generous measures of scotch.  All in all about 100 units of alcohol per week.  As a result I was suffering high blood pressure and feeling pretty crappy in the mornings. I decided to do something about it and had 3 sessions. The 2 weeks following the treatment were quite challenging - I attended a 3 day conference in Nice, an Amy Winehouse concert with free bar in Liverpool and a week's holiday in Spain. I'm pleased to say that although difficult at times I have totally abstained. How do I feel? I feel great. I have energy, I eat better, my complexion is better and I am more agreeable. Long term I hope to abstain for 6 weeks following which I hope to return to being a social drinker without the need to drink every night all night". Michael E

"You'll be pleased to hear I'm still feeling good, thanks to your help in getting sober”. PG

"When I first came to the clinic I was very doubtful about it working. I'd been drinking heavily for 16 years and had tried to stop on numerous occasions but never got longer than a day or two, as I never had enough willpower. After my first treatment I never touched another drop after drinking 6 litres of white lightening cider + cans a day. Just one session gave me more help then I ever expected. Since my first session I've been in 3 pubs in a week and the thought of buying a pint never entered my head. If I hadn't taken the plunge I would still be drinking excessive amounts of alcohol to this day. I now feel well in myself and know I will never drink alcohol again. It has given me that belief and strength of mind back. I can actually think straight for the first time in years". Graeme Charlton

"If you are reading this then congratulations as you are now heading in the right direction! Like me a couple of months ago, you have not only taken an important 1st step, but even more fortunately you have hit upon an effective treatment, one which actually works! The main thing you need to know is that 2 months ago alcohol was a major part of my daily life and now it is NOT. This is after treatment, I can now have half to two glasses of wine with a meal but feel NO compulsion to keep drinking for the entire evening, as was my habit. Also I barely touch spirits at all now. There are also many additional benefits which result from this treatment, physical health benefits, weight loss, clear eyes & skin, better self esteem, feeling in control and more positive, also financial benefits. Do not hesitate, even if you have a few doubts, at least try this treatment, you have nothing to lose and absolutely everything to gain". Anne C

"I went to the clinic in April 2007 and the next day I had no desire to reach for the vodka first thing in the morning. I was drinking a bottle + of alcohol a day but within 48 hours of treatment I was sleeping better, no more shakes in the morning. This treatment should be used by the NHS it is very reasonably priced compared to alternative methods but the main thing is IT WORKS". Tony D

"Just a quick note to thank you for all the help and understanding, this treatment really is remarkable and should be available on the NHS. I was sceptical at first as it sounds too easy but I can not thank you enough for getting my drinking under control, I feel much better about myself and my family are overjoyed with me, thanks once again". PT

"For over 15 years I've been caught up in a vicious circle of alcohol and depression. After just one treatment I was able to deal successfully with a highly emotional and stressful situation, which normally, would have put me under the duvet with a bottle of vodka. I feel like a teenager again with my whole life in front of me but armed with the knowledge of life's tough lessons. I can't remember feeling so calm yet energetic, relaxed yet motivated. I even danced when I was sober which i haven't done since the school disco!". MW

"I came in for my first treatment with lots of vodka in me to help with the journey and the unknown. Didn't sleep well the first and second nights but also didn't reach for the bottle. After the first week I thought I was cured so had one drink in the evening then two and three so time for a second treatment. All in all I think the treatment is excellent considering I was drinking a bottle plus of spirits a day starting first thing in the morning so I could stop shaking enough to have a shave. Since my first treatment I have a bigger appetite and partake in conversation at work where in the past I would just sat in the corner with my head down. I feel great and now have some control in my life". TD

"The treatment is truly amazing I relaxed in a reclining chair and fell asleep for the whole 2 hours of the treatment, as soon as I woke up I felt different! Since the treatment I've not had one bad dream or any hallucinations. I would recommend this treatment to any struggling alcoholic and you will be a very different person. I can not thank you enough, don't go through hell, go the clinic". Karl D

...it's the best I've been in 9 years". J Gardener

"I am really pleased with the "new me". Thanks for sorting me out. I had a great working weekend with no cravings in both the restaurant and at the gig". Mr OG

"Hi Andrew, doing well for past 3 months, almost feel ready to go without my bio-capsule".

Alcohol the Facts

Alcohol is seen by many as a more socially acceptable drug, but that's not to say it's any less powerful than other drugs. Technically speaking, it's a nervous system depressant, which means it slows down your body's responses in all kinds of ways. Just enough can make you feel great, too much and you'll have a hangover the next day.

One drink too many can leave you feeling out of control – like slurring your words, losing your balance and vomiting. Official guidelines recommend that men shouldn't regularly drink more than 3-4 units a day and women shouldn't regularly drink more than 2-3 units a day because of the harm this may cause. The guidelines also recommend that after an episode of heavy drinking, it's advisable to refrain from drinking for 48 hours to allow the tissues to recover.

Psychological and physical dependence on alcohol can creep up on you. Tolerance gradually increases the more you drink excessively on a regular basis, so you may find you'll need more alcohol to reach the same state. In other words, you may seem to be getting better at holding your drink when that's really a sign of a developing problem.

Serious overindulgence can lead to alcohol poisoning which could put you in a coma or even kill you. We have helped many clients either stop drinking completely or gain control over their alcohol use and become responsible social drinkers again.

Psychological effects
Although alcohol initially makes people feel relaxed, long term excessive use can ultimately increase anxiety and cause depression. It is also related to problems with sleeping, mood-swings, violence and suicide (about two-thirds of suicide attempts are thought to involve alcohol).

Alcohol can be a dangerous drug. Drinking too much too often will cause physical damage, increase the risk of getting some diseases, and make other diseases worse. Please read some of our customer comments below on how they stopped drinking with our help.

The 12 Steps
Are the 12 steps an out of date concept to stop drinking? Many experts think they are. Click here for the 12 steps and decide for yourself.

Some Common Questions & Answers:

How many treatment sessions will I need?
Most people need either 5 or 8 days of treatment to stop drinking depending on the amount of alcohol consumed. We can determine how many treatment sessions an individual will require based upon their average daily consumption, please enquire for further details.

What is your success rate?
Our success rates are very high with approximately 97% of clients achieving their goals. We can help make the individual feel 'indifferent' towards alcohol and so they can break the cycle and stop drinking. The main reason the treatment would not work completely would be due to not having enough treatment sessions to counter the amount of alcohol consumed daily.

Are your testimonials genuine?
Yes. We have more client testimonials than any other alcohol treatment centre, including The Priory, Promis or any other treatment facility some centers do not have any client testimonials. Our genuine and comprehensive customer comments are provided months and even years after treatment and confirm how good this treatment actually is. We have the original copies available which validate this treatment and its results, which have also been seen and verified by independent solicitors.

How is this method better than other alcohol treatment methods?
Because it is an actual treatment process which helps stop the craving/desire to drink while aiding the body's natural detox process, so the individual finds it much easier to stop drinking and regain control. Any other 'treatment' consists of either talking therapies or reading the 12 steps. A Health select committee report has branded these other alcohol treatments as 'dire' as they do not work. Drugs seldom work and can cause further prescription drug addiction and dependency problems. Most people are not drinking enough to find Alcoholics Anonymous suitable but they are drinking too much to stop on their own. AA is a weekly support group in a group setting, which is based on studying the 12 steps and relies on a ‘higher power' to help you stop drinking, this and other talking therapies can not address the core issue of physical need/desire for alcohol and so can take many years, if at all, to be successful. Our treatments can help quickly.

How does dealing with the physical desire help?
Regular drinking is caused by the 'feeling' that you want/need a drink, if you don't have any alcohol in the house, you will go and buy some, so the physical need motivates our actions. Once the physical desire has gone there is no urge to drink and so it is much easier to break the cycle, stop drinking and regain control. Dealing with the physical desire is the key to stopping drinking and regaining control quickly.

I drink and use drugs, do I have to pay twice?
No. We can combine our detox formulas for two substances in a 'dual detox' i.e. alcohol & cocaine, at no extra cost.

What is the disease model of addiction?
All residential or 12 step treatment centers preach the theory addiction is a disease, which of course it is not. Those who use this excuse represent 'old thinking' and lack credible treatments to help people stop and so blame their failure on a wider less tangible concept that addiction or dependency is a disease, however the disease theory has been popularised but never 'proven'.

Is AA and the 12 Steps the most effective alcohol treatment?
No. Attending AA does not involve any 'treatment', they follow the 12 steps in a hope one will stop drinking, however many people who are following 'the steps' are still drinking. The 12 steps were drafted in 1935 and have no 'intervention' properties, they involve a process of prayer and meditation to achieve a 'spiritual awakening'. In fact the Ditman Study provided evidence that AA is no more effective than no treatment at all. New member drop out rates, the percentage of those that leave is, 81% after one month, 90% after 3 months, 95% after 12 months. AA have a 5% retention rate, yet are perceived as a successful organisation.

How does this method compare to a residential stay?
Far better. In a residential setting the individual follows the 12 steps and is denied access to alcohol, as soon as they return to normal life, many people start drinking again. With our help the individual has the normal access to alcohol but finds it much easier not to drink. This is immediate proof the treatment is working and breaking the old drinking habits, so the individual can stop drinking and regain control.

What are the other treatments options for alcohol use?
Apart from counselling groups which seldom work, most people are not drinking enough to be prescribed medication such as Librium (a tranquilliser), Antabuse or Naltrexone with various unpleasant side-effects and possible further dependency, they would normally be told to 'cut down' or be prescribed Anti-Depressants by their GP, which simply do not work or help the individual to stop drinking.

Why have I not heard about this before?
A lot of people already have as we have treated more than 5,000 clients, however if you have only just started looking for the best way to stop drinking that would explain why you have just become aware of it. Had you been looking for the last 6 years, you would be aware of our methods and how successful they are to help stop drinking.

What is the focus of current treatment methods?
It is widely acknowledged the focus of 'treatment' for alcohol problems over the past 30 to 40 years is based solely on 'living with the problem', rather than stopping it. The focus of our method is based on 'recovery' and not maintenance. Our treatments will help stop alcohol use in 1 to 3 days for most people depending on the amount of alcohol used daily, so the individual can stop drinking and regain control.

How is this treatment different?
It is widely acknowledged the focus of 'treatment' for alcohol problems over the past 30 to 40 years is based solely on 'living with the problem', rather than stopping it. The focus of our method is based on 'recovery' and not maintenance. Our treatments will help stop alcohol use in 1 to 3 days for most people depending on the amount of alcohol used daily, so the individual can stop drinking and regain control.

How can it help me to regain control?
The treatment helps break the current cycle of alcohol use, so the individual finds it much easier to stop drinking and have a period of abstinence. Some clients want to reintroduce alcohol but drink responsibly afterwards while others choose not to drink at all or only on social occasions. The long-term success of any treatment is down to the individual and their choices.

Isn't it hard to stop drinking?
Yes, everything you have been told about how difficult it can be to stop drinking is true when using other treatment methods such as willpower, medication or counselling, as none of these processes actually help stop the desire to drink alcohol and either take months or years or are very unpleasant and painful. We continually prove 'in real life' that most of what you have been told does not apply to clients who use our method to stop drinking.

What help is available from my GP/NHS?
Very little. A Health select committee of MP's has branded NHS alcohol treatment services in the UK as 'dire' as 'evidence based clinical treatments' for alcohol abuse do not work. GP's simply prescribe addictive benzodiazepines drugs like valium. They prescribe these anxiety drugs (anti-depressants) which don't work and don't help the individual to stop drinking but they are very addictive which creates a new problem of 'drug-dependency' for the individual, they also have very serious side effects. So there is little to no help available at present from the NHS or your GP. Other drugs like Seroxat, Naltrexone and Librium have more serious side-effects. So there is little to no help available at present from the NHS or your GP.

Does the UK have the best healthcare system in Europe?
No, far from it. The Centre for Policy Studies think tank report on addiction policy also blamed NICE, 'for NICE effective treatment interventions are limited to those treatments which have been subject to randomized controlled experimentation and are clinically based (drugs). This automatically limits the knowledge or treatments they can drawn on'. The UK is ranked 17th for healthcare in Europe even behind Estonia. It's no coincidence that the countries above the UK embrace non-pharmaceutical treatments in their healthcare (pluralistic) whereas the UK does not and there are no restrictions on patient choice, unlike in the UK. The World Health Organisation (WHO) declared the Dutch system to be one of the best healthcare systems in the world in 2008 and was voted best in Europe in 2008 & 2009, it stands in opposition to one single approach or method [monopoly] since private and public services coexist side by side. Patients choose their practitioners according to need and can freely access different types of hospitals or private services. 'Dutch doctors are renowned for an old-fashioned approach and a reluctance to hand out medication as a quick fix. Doctors won't give you antidepressants if you are a bit depressed, they will try to do something about the causes'.

What is the addiction challenge?
It is to improve patient treatment options and establish which method of treatment is the most efficacious with the best patient outcomes. We welcome ANY challenge to test our treatment methods against any 'evidence based clinical method' NHS treatment for addiction and dependency' because they do not work. Our test would be carried out over 10 days at the end of that period the individual would be dependence free and not reliant on any replacement medication. The NHS challenge has been in effect since January 2007 and no clinician, GP, scientist or medical professional has come forward to take part. Annually the NHS costs the tax payer £1.5billion for drug, alcohol and smoking treatments which 'do not work, have poor outcomes and bad results' as targets have focused on the 'numbers in treatment' rather than the outcome of that treatment, this is wasteful and irresponsible at any time, especially in the current economic climate.

How do the NHS commission local alcohol services?
Very badly. Critics say 'the Department of Health refer treatment services to the local PCT's who then refer these enquires to the local DAT's but they do not have the initiative to commission new treatments and so refer them back to the DoH, this failure illustrates both: - the absurdity and lack of leadership within the NHS and: - the DAT's reluctance to 'embrace innovation and change'. A report by the National Audit Office says 'The Department of Health and NHS organisations are both guilty of passing the buck on responsibility for dealing with addiction problems. The Department of Health has completely handed over the task of addressing alcohol abuse to the primary care trusts. And the trusts have in turn looked to another set of bodies (DAT's) to take the lead in commissioning services but they have failed to do so. The DoH does not provide enough leadership to primary care trusts, meaning local services to tackle addiction are not well-planned. Around a quarter of PCTs have not fully assessed the extent of alcohol problems in their areas, and many cannot even say how much money they are devoting to reducing addiction. Instead, PCTs leave everything to local 'Drug and Alcohol action Teams - DAT' - who do nothing. 'It's very clear the public are being let down again by the services which are meant to be serving them'.

Who is to blame for the current failure of NHS treatments?
It is widely acknowledged there is a culture of inertia and inefficiency that is rife throughout the public sector. In the public sector there is no competitive edge; no incentive to cuts costs or improve efficiency. We have said since 2006 the blame lies with the 'monolithic bureaucracy' and 'monumental incompetence' by those who were responsible for commissioning new treatments and a Health Committee of MPs agree 'the trusts' perceptions of how they were performing were often removed from reality', and 'it was concerned about ‘complacency' among NHS managers, accusing PCTs of having ‘misplaced confidence' in their own ability, the committee have returned a damning verdict on the standard of NHS commissioning, as they should be taking the lead and introducing better treatment methods but are failing to do so as ex-health secretary Andy Burnham stated last autumn [2009] that 'in-house NHS bodies should be the "preferred provider" for existing [alcohol] services'. This decision was referred to the OFT for a ruling as being unfair. In practice, this is irrespective of whether it can supply the required services, or to the required standards, which of course they can not. Stephen Dunn, director of strategy for the East of England Health Authority says the complete opposite, 'We need the best provider and this is the only way forward. Only a private company, he says, will get 'real innovation and efficiency' into the NHS process'. As the DoH/NHS could not agree amongst themselves, nothing was done and so they carried on with the same 'failing methods' hence why alcohol problems did not get any better and did in fact, get worse every year with alcohol related deaths up 40% in the last 10 years and liver disease trebled. The CBI agree that policy actually restricts innovation and change rather than utilising it and 'public procurement should be a driver, not a blocker, of innovation'. Kathy Gyngell the chair of addiction policy at the Center for Policy Studies agrees with us and said 'My plea for policy makers to draw on the real life, non laboratory, experience of those who have recovered from addiction and those who successfully help others to do so...' Alcohol problems will continue to escalate as current treatment methods do not work and there is no initiative to introduce treatments that do work.

The £1billion Non-Treatment Disaster
The truth is, despite spending over £10bn on 'treatment' over the last 10years the NHS has the worst success rates in treating addiction and dependency problems. The Centre for Policy Studies report on addiction policy confirmed 'Labour was squandering billions on ineffective treatment' and 'costly treatment programmes which do not work'. Critics agree 'the new government need to act and end this systemic failure which is unacceptable and a waste of public funds as over £1billion per annum is spent on ineffective and outdated methods of treating addiction, which do not work and have no real success rate or measurable value'. Critics say the situation is deplorable, 'how can one expect treatment outcomes to improve if they continue with the same failed treatment methods? It's a classic definition of 'madness' expecting better results while using the same failed treatment methods which have been proven 'ineffective' for the last 40 years, in effect, continue doing the same thing but expecting better results'. A Report by the National Audit office confirms 'The NHS is spending £1.2 billion in 2009-10. But there was no framework in place for evaluating the achievements of the 2008 Drug & Alcohol Strategy which limited the Departments' understanding of the overall value for money achieved and where future resources should be prioritised. Critics say 'this is ridiculous, they were spending £1.2bn a year on their treatment strategy but had no idea of whether or not it was successful. The lack of a 'evaluative framework' was either, intentional so the NTA can hide their dismal success rate or it was gross incompetence'. The Tory's have said they will abandon Labours failed 'harm reduction' policy and focus on 'abstinence' rather than 'addiction maintenance as 'we think what really matters, is whether you are better after your treatment', a Conservative spokesman said. But the BMA are already trying to strangle the reforms to prevent patient choice, improve efficiency and reduce NHS costs.

How long does it take to gain NHS recognition?
Usually the NHS takes around 8 to 10 years to recognise a different treatment process, which critics say is 'excessive and unnecessary'. We can draw a direct comparison between our 'frequency' treatment for addiction and dependency and a 'laser' cancer treatment called Photodynamic therapy or PDT. Very few people have even heard about PDT yet it is an approved NHS treatment and avoids the risks of surgery, cuts the use of hospital beds and removes the need for repeated hospital visits required by chemo and radiotherapy and could save the healthcare system up to £2billion pounds a year, according to estimates by cancer specialists at University College Hospital, London. But just 300 cancer patients out of more than 300,000 were referred for treatment last year, which is just 0.1%. Many patients have never even told about PDT or they are told (incorrectly) that it is experimental and doesn't work. However after 10 years, cancer experts have now called for more NHS patients to be given this 'pioneering' (even though it is 10 years old) laser treatment as an alternative to surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy. As you can see, the NHS is very slow to respond to change regardless of how successful a non-pharmaceutical treatment is, indeed experts have warned about the NHS being left behind due to its slow-tech approach. Sir David Frost explains how he is 'astonished and deeply troubled' and how it is 'impossible to understand the lack of or non existent support' the NHS shows for breakthrough treatments. The same apathy applies to our breakthrough treatment for addiction and dependency. We will continue with our efforts to gain NHS recognition for our 'frequency' alcohol treatment.

Does the NHS really embrace non-pharmaceutical treatments?
Not at the moment. A report by the NHS Confederation predicts the health service is facing a £15billion shortfall in funding and says a 'solution to this crisis lies in NHS leaders embracing innovation, change and improving efficiency' however a seperate report confirms the NHS is heading for business failure. 'Critics emphasize 'the NHS is ranked 13th for healthcare in Europe mostly due to their inability to 'embrace innovation and change' and the dogmatic reliance on pharmaceutical medication for every condition. In fact, there is a co-ordinated campaign to derail non-pharmaceutical treatments on the NHS which was first reported in The Independent on Sunday in 2007. The campaign dates back to 2005, Dr Fisher said, 'The pharmaceutical industry is worried for its future, as public opinion is shifting towards complementary and alternative therapies (CAM)' and this is the real threat to the pharmaceutical industry as 84% of patients linked an improvement in their health and wellbeing directly to their CAM treatment compared to only 30 to 50 per cent of people who gain any benefit from their medication and 94% of patients said they would recommend CAM to another patient with their condition but very few people [5%] said they would recommend their drugs to other patients due to their side-effects.

How do drug companies influence NHS treatment decisions?
MP Paul Flynn says 'the main concern is that the drugs companies have their tentacles in every area where decisions are taken  -  that includes the WHO, governments, civil service, and even charities'. The drug companies have enormous influence over which treatments patients receive on the NHS and they make sure it's their products patients are using. The NHS currently spend £11billion on drugs, click here to see how this works in practice. Professor Christopher McCabe from the University of Leeds has criticised scientific advisory group reporting to the Government, saying they are not independent, 'the manufacturers, patient groups, clinicians, and the Department of Health are represented on the scientific advisory group,' he wrote. 'All these bodies have a vested interest in maintaining the status quo'. The budget holders, who pay for these drugs, with responsibility for the health of populations served by the NHS, are not represented on the scientific advisory group, and as a result there is no countervailing influence on the group's decision making'. Most people don't know the medical profession is heavily influenced by the drug companies which creates a conflict of interest 'the pharmaceutical industry operates in a way that puts profits before public health and the regulatory authorities, which are meant to ensure the safety of drugs and protect the public, collude with the industry'. Critics say 'just as MP's have been held accountable for their poor behavior, it's time the medical profession were also placed under the same kind of scrutiny and transparency as they are not independent and therefore 'they should not have the responsibility to authorise which treatments are available on the NHS through NICE'. They are in effect 'using their power to block non-pharmaceutical treatments from becoming mainstream quickly'. Critics argue 'the process is not independent, not fair and needs urgent review. It is in the public interest and already established by independent monitoring committees that it would be 'unethical' to deprive patients of successful treatment'. But now the new government has confirmed their support for complementary and alternative treatments to increase patient choice in their treatment options.

Have you contacted the addiction service about how you can help?
Yes, the addiction services have been criticised by the Tory's as being 'not fit for purpose' as they do not use any form of treatment which actually stops dependency, they only use 'replacement' drugs such as Librium, Antabuse or Naltrexone and employ services like doctor's appointments, medicals and counselling sessions but use nothing which actually stops the problem of dependency or can help stop the addiction problem, as a result the only people who get clean are the ones who would have quit anyway and are known as the 'natural rate of remission' which in 2008 was just 3.6%. A report by the Centre for Policy Studies confirmed our findings 'the numbers emerging for government treatment programs are at the same levels as if there had been no treatment program at all'. Dominic Grieve, the then shadow home secretary said 'the Government only seek to manage people's addiction as opposed to ending it' he added 'we would abandon Labour's failing policy and replace it with an abstinence-based approach. This will have the objective of actually getting people off drugs/alcohol for good'. The LibDem health spokesman Norman Lamb said 'The Government is losing the fight against addiction. There needs to be a National Audit Office investigation into the cost effectiveness of the £800m for treatment. The current record of failure is disastrous both for those in treatment and the wider community'. Critics also argue ‘the addiction services are in denial and continue with the same failing ‘addiction model' despite clear evidence it doesn't actually work or achieve anything'. There are plenty of people coming into treatment but not enough are leaving at the other end, just 4.3% in 2009, as they lack a final stage detox process which our treatment can provide. The Health Minister Andrew Lansley has now scrapped the NTA.

Doctors, Lies And The Addiction Bureaucracy
A leading doctor and author of 'Doctors, Lies And The Addiction Bureaucracy', Dr Dalrymple explains why: 'addiction services have grown so massively they have developed a survival instinct and are not looking for a cure, in short, the bureaucracy of addiction needs clients far more than clients need the bureaucracy of addiction. As a result, 'a self-serving, self-perpetuating and completely useless alcohol/drug bureaucracy has built up to deal with the problem' which is apparent by their low remission rate of just 3.6%, click here to read his full article.

What is treatment?
The definitions of the word treatment are 'the management of someone or something' or the 'management and care of a patient' or in medical terms 'the combating of disease or disorder'. Most other alcohol 'treatments' only involve the 'management of the problem' as they lack an actual treatment process to help combat the problem. Our treatment is a physical detox process which produces a specific outcome, i.e. the person finds it much easier to stop drinking after each treatment session. Any other 'treatments' only seek to 'manage the problem' as they do not/can not produce a specific outcome, they consist of either, talking therapies, reading or studying the 12 steps or taking other medications with hazardous side-effects, none of which are desirable/suitable for most people.

How was this treatment developed?
Our treatments represent the biggest breakthrough in addiction therapy in the last 70 years. The basis of biofrequency is not new and was developed in Germany in 1977. The history dates back to Georges Lakhovsky who discovered that all living cells (plants, people, bacteria, parasites, etc) possess attributes which are normally are associated with electronic circuits, Dr. Royal R. Rife found that every disease has a specific frequency and found that certain frequencies can prevent the development of disease, Professor Harold Saxton Burr showed that these L-Fields could be used to predict illness by noting variations in them, Dr Reinhold Voll identified correlations between disease states and changes in the electrical resistance of the various acupuncture points, German biophysicist Fritz-Albert Popp found that a diseased cells will radiate a different photonic signature than healthy cells of the same type and Dr Robert O. Becker found the human body has an electrical frequency and that much about a person's health can be determined and influenced by it. By using the correct frequencies in the right order it is possible to remove a substance (alcohol) completely and help stop the body's dependency for it. Over the last 6 years we have treated more than 5,000 clients to either, stop smoking, stop drinking or stop using drugs, so the treatment is well established, proven and tested.

How does it work so quickly?
Ttreatments use physics instead of chemistry (pharmaceutical drugs) to bring about change and works quickly to neutralise or erase the alcohol in the body, so the body does not know it has had alcohol and hence does not crave/want it any more. The key to stopping drinking is helping to stop the physical need or desire for alcohol.

How does it work?
Any clinical scientist will tell you, laboratory results will only stand up when the treatment is used in the real world. Medication (chemistry) targets cells to evoke change in the patients' condition however it is no secret that over 90% of all drugs only work for 30% to 50% of the patients who take them due to their genes which interfere in some way with the medicine. Frequencies do not rely on genetics as they target a specific substance(s) rather than an individual's cells and so produces much higher response rates. It is well established in physics that everything has its own frequency range including: living creatures, organs, plants and disease even substances like nicotine, alcohol or drugs have their own frequency range. Our treatment works similar to how a radio picks up a frequency broadcast from hundreds of miles away, the body picks up the treatment frequencies via the main acupuncture points on the wrists (no needles are used during this treatment) to successfully cancel/erase the effects of alcohol throughout the entire body and stimulate the production of endorphins so withdrawal symptoms are greatly reduced. It is safe, painless and very successful. Click here for further details.

What are the other treatments options for alcohol use?
Apart from counselling groups which seldom work, most people are not drinking enough to be prescribed medication such as Librium (a tranquilliser), Antabuse or Naltrexone with various unpleasant side-effects and possible further dependency, they would normally be told to 'cut down' or be prescribed Anti-Depressants by their GP, which simply do not work or help the individual to stop drinking.

Is it safe?
Yes, we have carried out over 6,000 individual treatment sessions to either stop smoking, drinking or using drugs, so the treatment process is well established and proven. It is safe, painless and very successful. It uses harmless frequencies, which are completely painless but very effective for neutralising alcohol.

Why has no-one else developed this treatment or something like it?
Because there is no research into stopping dependency, the Royal College of Psychiatrists estimates that only ¼ of 1% of the budget to fight drugs misuse is spent on officials studying 'the effects' of alcohol use, not looking for a cure. As there is no research into stopping addiction this explains why no treatments to help with addiction have come from this area or is likely to come from this area in the future.

What does any addiction research usually focus on?
Any research into alcohol problems is based on developing more chemical based drug treatments that allow the individual to 'live with the problem', not help stop it.

Is this treatment a cure?
No alcohol treatments centers provide a cure. Most people do not need a cure they only need help to stop drinking and regain control of their alcohol consumption, It is an aid to achieve this so the individual can break their drinking habits. Any person who expects to be cured will not be suitable for this or any other treatment as they seek to remove themselves from the treatment process and blame others for their behavior.

Why do I need to help myself?
Because current 'treatment' methods will not help you to stop drinking. There is no research into stopping alcohol addiction, no interest from the addiction services for any type of treatment that helps with addiction and any non-pharmaceutical treatments are simply ignored, so it's clear the only way to get the treatment you want and need is to use private treatment.

Will I have any withdrawal symptoms?
Not usually as the alcohol consumption reduces gradually throughout the detox treatment process, so the individual steps down in a controlled way, although individual experiences may vary.

Does this treatment imply I will never drink alcohol again?
No. We would not recommend any clients to reintroduce alcohol back into their lifestyle until they can drink responsibly and those with serious alcohol addictions should consider total abstinence as their best policy. The long-term success of any treatment is the responsibility of the individual and not a third party.

What do I do if I can't control my drinking?
If an individual genuinely lacks the ability to manage their alcohol consumption and drink responsibility then total abstinence is their best policy.

Will this treatment work for me?
Our treatments works for nearly everyone depending upon him or her, actually wanting to stop drinking and following the treatment program & instructions. This treatment is an intervention to allow the individual to stop drinking and regain control therefore we can not provide any long term guarantees or personal assurances as individuals are responsible for their long term success. This treatment is not suitable for people who have mental health issues or are unable to follow simple instructions.

How long does the alcohol treatment program take?
For most people the alcohol detox program takes 5 or 8 days depending on the amount of alcohol used daily.

Will I require any bed-rest after treatment?
No. After treatment you will feel fit & well without any side-effects.
